CMS: Hourly Carbon Dioxide Estimated Using the WRF Model, North America, 2010

This data set contains estimated hourly CO2 atmospheric mole fractions and meteorological observations over North America for the year 2010 at a horizontal grid resolution of 27 km and vertical resolution from the surface to 50 hPa. The data are output from the Penn State WRF-Chem version of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model using lateral boundary conditions and surface fluxes from the CMS-Flux Inversion system.
